Podcast: Heroes of the Seas – Diplomat of the Oceans

Every week, passionate ocean lover Christian Weigand interviews a different passionate ocean lover in his BLUE AWARENESS PODAST „HEROES OF THE OCEANS“. I had the pleasure and honour of being his guest. You can listen to our inspiring conversation in German by following this LINK TO THE ORIGINAL PAGE.

Christian writes: “This episode features Jochen Werne, a „people diplomat“ who organises sailing expeditions to commemorate historic moments, bring people together and deliver important messages. He receives support from well-known personalities such as Prince Albert II and the Queen of England.

Jochen discovered his passion for the sea as a navigator in the navy, where he himself was an instructor on the Gorch Fock. Although his professional career brought him back to land, he is still an enthusiastic sailor. He founded the GOST (Global Offshore Sailing Team) @expeditionblueocean, in which people from different nationalities set off on expeditions to raise awareness for sustainability and peace”

Hot off the press: GenAI Has Forever Changed the Fraud Landscape

This hot-off-the-press article from IT Finanzmagazin perfectly encapsulates the state of today’s fraud landscape. The rapid evolution of generative AI (GenAI) is transforming fraud at an unprecedented pace, introducing new threats that challenge businesses across industries. Experian’s latest Forrester Study highlights how 76% of German fraud prevention leaders believe that GenAI has permanently changed the fraud landscape. Fraud tactics have become increasingly sophisticated, leading to an alarming rise in API fraud, money laundering, and bot attacks – trends that demand urgent action. As CEO of Experian DACH, I firmly believe that traditional rule-based systems are no longer sufficient to counter these evolving threats. The battle between businesses and fraudsters is now driven by AI, and only companies leveraging advanced AI-powered analytics will stay ahead. Continuous innovation, collaboration, and AI-driven fraud detection are now imperative to protect financial and personal data in our increasingly digital world.
